Symptom topography alone is often insufficient for determining whether a behavior is a tic or compulsion.
A behavior is an infinite set of sentences all made up of these symbols.
Hence, albeit in a very different way from Tinbergen, Lorenz also came to see whether a behavior is an adaptation as the key issue.
